What exactly we’re going to see will be interesting as each team of four people will go against another team who elects one of their members to be the killer for that round. Afterward, the teams swap places. There seem to be no rules as to which killer you can choose or which perks you’re allowed to use on either side. But then again, finding a complete list of rules for this is hard since they’re nowhere to be found. We’ll see how this all plays out starting on Friday afternoon.
